I knew I had a sinus infection because one tell tale sign I get is I lose my sense of smell. I had pain, swelling, pressure, redness of my cheeks, and Post nasal drip. Then I tried the apple cider vinegar.
2 table spoons of ACV with 12 oz. of warm water sipped over about a half hour time. Within an hour I regained my sense of smell. The pain and pressure were relieved considerably (not completely gone, but relieved). I took three doses in a day. Later that night my symptoms returned so I took some mucus relieving over the counter meds to help me sleep.
Next day, my symptoms are almost totally gone. I can breathe freely, I can smell, and only have a slight amount of pressure and sinus congestion. In short, I am amazed how this cure worked.
To the skeptics...try it. You have nothing to lose, and the cost is low.
Thank you Earthclinic for this GREAT site.

About 3 or 4 days ago I developed a terrible sinus infection in the right side of my face. It was terrible. I couldn't hear out of my ear, dental pain, yellow mucus, facial pain and swelling, the whole deal. I tried the ACV remedy. About 2 tbsp of ACV, about 1 cup of water, and about 1 tbsp of honey did the trick for me. My dental pain and headache are subsiding, and I can finally breathe out of the right side of my nose. I'm very happy about these results. :)

I haven't tried the apple cider vinegar yet. but heres what i'm trying now to get rid of this nasty sinus infection. I'm using a netti pot with a saline solution i bought at _____, it's specifically for cold/flu. I'm also drinking a solution of water and echinacea (liquid form)as much as possible. The echinacea really clears you up instantly. I'm also taking vitamin c, e, and b-12 during the day to keep me going, as well as a womens daily vitamin. While i'm at work and cannot get to my echinacea i've actually been taking goldenseal also to help the infection and inflamation. Tonight i think i'm going to boil water and the sea salt for cold/flu and try to breathe that in cause my chest is starting to get really tight. I'm trying to keep this from turning into bronchitis. If you have any yea or nays please comment back. thanks!

I mixed one tablespoon of Organic AC Vinegar in eight ounces of water with a teaspoon of honey and withing 45 min. I felt some relief. I have had sinus infections and draining down my throat so bad for four years that resulted in sleep deprivation *was becoming so common.
Tonight my nose felt crusted, sore and had blood clotts. I know this means infection. After taking my first dose, I tried one more of the same mixture and I feel a lot better. I am going to stick with as the results on this website are unbelievable for AC vinegar.
I have been prescribed everything for sinus, including steroids. Nothing ever made much difference and the infections keep coming back.
I am going to try to get some rest now, I feel a lot better. I wish I had stuck with it before and not let the taste drive me away. I found some awesome combinations to mix the vinegar with to cut the taste. I will report back, as I am very optimisitic. I am on vacation for ten days and plan to "do battle"!!! I love this site and I am grateful it is always here when I need it.

Has anyone ever tried the ACV tablets? If so, do they work for the sinus infections as the liquid does?

I too have take vinegar and honey off and on for over 3 years. This time I am a believer! 3 days ago my sinus just about exploded! I was in such pain that I couldn't sleep. I tried some over the counter medication and it only made it worse, couldn't even breathe, only from my mouth. I finally went back to this site and looked up what vinegar could do for me. I started drinking 8 ounces of warm water with 2 tablespoons ____ ACV with a tablespoon of honey. I drank several of these during the next 2 days and as of this morning I can breathe and I haven't had to blow my nose! I also slept through the night, I did use a strip on my nose that helped too but have used in the past and nose has still dripped. I got a good nights sleep and got up this morning and drank another glass of ACV with honey. I am going to use it everyday since reading up that it could calm down hot flashes too! What a relief!

I have been suffering from sinusitis for years, with post nasal drip causing havoc with my sleep. After trying a Neti Pot, which didn't help because I was usually too congested for it to work properly. I stumbled across Organic Apple Cider Vinegar and it worked. I take it daily, usually 2tsp-2tbs in tea with unpasteurized honey (Twinnings lemon ginger tea is great) 3X a day. Because I take it daily I never get congested. When I cannot take the organic ACV I take two ACV pills (You can get these at most pharmacies and health food stores). If you want the most benefits, the organic ACV is best, but realistically there will be times when you can only take it in pill form. I have not even needed to use my Neti Pot in nearly a year(It works well if taken daily as a preventative, just not so well when stuffed up already). Remember to rinse your teeth or chew on something after to avoid damaging your tooth enamel. You may also need to take some extra water throughout the day to help dilute the acid in your stomach. Avoid any dairy, this will cause mucus to form as well. Fresh ginger root sliced and boiled to make a tea helps sooth the throat as well if you need it, also sweeten with unpasteurized honey as it is an antimicrobial. Take all of this along with oil of oregano if suffering from an infection, for children dilute 2-3drops in orange juice. Hope this helps. Remember the key is to make it a part of your daily routine if you are a sinus sufferer. ACV is also helpful in losing weight.

I have QUESTION if someone can answer. I have noticed when I come to work, I get my nose blcoked but if i go outside or am at home I don't have that much blockage.
Do you think it is to do with dust mints in carpet at work. i don't have carpet at home.
So Not sure what I should do, although I have deceided to drink ACV regularly until I get rid of my mucus completly.
Please ADVISE for my QUESTION.

Wanted to respond to Hema from Sydney. I've heard that yeast could be a number one cause for why our sinuses may react better or worse in different places. If the building you work in is an older building that makes it more likely to have mold growing inside the walls. It's crazy what that stuff can do to a person!!

It sounds to me exactly like a dust mite allergy although there could be other allergens that might cause a similar reaction like mold. I had the same problem when I used to live in a house with old carpet. Every time I came home I felt sick and I began to wonder if I was somehow not wanting to come home! Of course, it turned out I was just allergic to dust and dust mites. Good luck in solving the problem!

ACV is already working for me, but I wanted to know more about how you cured your cervical cancer. I was just diagnosed with cronic cervicitis and apparently need some type of procedure. Is there anything you can recommend instead of surgery?
Thank you,

I was on the internet about an hour ago and I saw your site. Figured what the heck, the Aleeve wasn't doing anything to relieve the pain, and the decongestent was not working. I had a bottle of Apple Cider Vinegar and I went a little overboard: I put in one ladleful of AVC in a tall glass of warm water, which I believe probably evens out to three or four tablespoons of AVC.
Hey,I was desperate.
I drank it all down in one sitting. Now, forty five minutes later, the dental pain is just about gone, and my throat doesn't feel raw anymore. I know you said to use it before the onset of the infection, but the only time I've ever feel this good this quickly was when I was using prescription drugs.
I'm a believer in ACV now. Will follow up later with at least two more glasses of the stuff. Thank you!
